It's February 10th (GMT-6 time zone), the last day to get scores in for the Dogwood challenge. If you want to get a jump on the new challenge, here it is:

Let's mix it up this time with some warm water fishing. Top score on the Upper Mississippi River challenge wins a copy of the upcoming Third Edition. The prize will go to the person posting the highest score who hasn't already won a copy. If you've already won one, go ahead and post your scores to see how they stack up with the rest.

This is a 10 site challenge outing. Use any skill level setting you like, but since expert has a 50% score boost, that's probably your best bet.

Submit your scores on or before 2-17 cental time (GMT-6, the time zone used on the forum.)

For the first week's winners we have:
Kerry, for the highest score after the update, and the highest score prior to the scoring bug.
Sean, for the highest score before the update and reporting the scoring bug.
And since Kerry had already won a copy before the update, let's also give one to Rodeo for the second highest score after the update.

5 and 2? Wow. I'll have to check some settings - didn't expect any that small to be possible. I've caught a bass that small in real life, but not in the game. There is the "big cheater" trick for extra-large fish. I don't suppose there's a "little cheater" too... =)
